My mother use to take my sister and my polyester knit skirts and
cut them up for quilts when we out grew them. She made each of us
a quilt out of them using the 9patch block. I remember grandchildren
nieces and the rest of us saying, "I get the next one Nanny." My daughter even took one my mother made for a niece because it
was pink with her permission of course. Now I have a portion of one she started but passed before
finishing it. I have visited thrift stores looking for polyester knits to
finish it but I can't seem to find the material any more. I hope that I
get to complete it someday. BTW, they were really warm.
